Correct.A bishop is a pastor...
Some who pastor a church are bishop's, and some are presbyter's. Bishop's are hierarchically superior to presbyter's (and to deacon's), because it take's a bishop to ordain a presbyter (or a deacon). Presbyter's cannot ordain presbyter's or deacon's....Someone that pastors a church is a bishop...
They're were no bishop's "not preaching from the [Greek Old Testament] as divinely inspired." They're were no bishop's involved in that. Martin Luther was a presbyter....These Bishops not preaching from the apocrypha as divinely inspired was their part in them being removed.
